Abstract
Les urgences néphrologiques ne sont pas les plus fréquentes mais elles posent souvent des problèmes de diagnostic et de prise en charge. Les situations néphrologiques urgentes concernent avant tout l’insuffisance rénale aiguë, les troubles électrolytiques, les crises hypertensives et plus rarement des intoxications ou une pathologie rénale chronique qui se décompense rapidement. Le but de cet article est de présenter certaines de ces situations cliniques du point de vue des démarches diagnostiques et thérapeutiques immédiates et surtout de discuter à quel moment le néphrologue devrait être appelé pour que la coordination des soins soit la meilleure possible dans l’intérêt du patient.
[Nephrology emergencies are not the most frequent in the emergency room but they often generate some diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Most common renal emergencies are due most often to acute renal failure whatever the cause, electrolytes disturbances, hypertensive crisis and less frequently intoxications or acute decompensation of chronic kidney diseases. The goal of this paper is to review some of these clinical situations both in the diagnostic and therapeutic perspective but essentially to discuss when the nephrologist should be called in the emergency room so that the coordination of care is optimal for the patients.]
